List of Categories

From MomaPIX

The images and photo series entered in the archive can be divided into a number of categories which are created using this item from the Preferences menu

Note: If you have subscribed multi-lingual support, you can also enter the category name in the second language, specifying required name in the second column

Next to each category name you must enter a three letter identifier code that is required to associate it with to the Category field in the metadata infofile. MomaPIX allows the fields in the Photoshop (or FotoStation or similar software infofile to be imported directly into the archive. For this reason it is important to choose these characters carefully to ensure fast upload of images into the archive.

Where possible, the MomaPIX software fixes these characters automatically three consonants in the name of the category being created. Eg if the category being created is Sport, the software allocates the letters SPT. However, you can choose any three letters to be allocated with a category as long as there are no duplications.

Note: the defined categories are displayed in the public section of the website only when they are actually used. So if you create a News category ,it will only appear on the drop down menu in the website’s public web pages when the category contains at least one photo.
